I just ordered some more of those expensive tenax fasteners and a spare set of points and rotar from Vicky Brit. I am nearing the end. You know after this long it feels funny getting ready to put the midget back on the road. Kind of nervous and I know I intended to fix this one up as a daily driver but now I feel kind of squeamish about that. Still, you can't have a trophy and use t too and I want to fun of driving it. Still, I will be a little more leary of packing it at walmart and places like that. Hmmn.

Nice to hear you nearing the end of your restoration, Kim. Of course, these little cars are never really done, now are they.

Drive it and enjoy it, that's what it's for.

I did take a tour this morning though. Had her all clean for the P'cola Brit show next Sat. Weather folks show rain. Sigh. Been rained out for three shows so far this year.
